Below are a few simple website tips that you may or may not find useful. I’ve written these tips down for people considering having a website developed as a simple guide of things to consider. Seek advice when considering having a website developed and always approach at least 3 or 4 companies before selecting your designer/developer.
1. Make sure your site is laid out in an organised fashion. Don’t let your visitors get lost.
2. Use images to enhance your site. Remember to use “alt” tags.
3. Always include a sitemap for the major search engines to find.
4. Offer secure on-line payment – this instils confidence in customers.
5. Make it easy for people to contact you. Have a quick submission form on every page
6. Publish genuine customer testimonials. Make sure you can back them up.
7. Avoid the use of pop-ups. They’re annoying and people will leave your site.
8. Give visitors the chance to sign-up to your site. This will produce email addresses so that you can create mailing lists.
